Land Use Change and Infectious Disease Emergence

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 2, June 2025.
Abstract Major infectious diseases threatening human health are transmitted to people from animals or by arthropod vectors such as insects. In recent decades, disease outbreaks have become more common, especially in tropical regions, including new and emerging infections that were previously undetected or unknown. Even though there is growing awareness

Henipavirus inPteropus vampyrusBats, Indonesia

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2006
The emergence of Nipah virus (NiV) in Malaysia in 1999 resulted in 265 known human infections (105 fatal), widespread infection in pigs (with >1 million culled to control the outbreak), and the collapse of the Malaysian pig export market. As with the closely related Hendra virus (HeV) that emerged in Australia in 1994 and caused fatal disease in horses

Structure and antigenicity of divergent Henipavirus fusion glycoproteins

Nature Communications, 2023
AbstractIn August 2022, a novel henipavirus (HNV) named Langya virus (LayV) was isolated from patients with severe pneumonic disease in China. This virus is closely related to Mòjiāng virus (MojV), and both are divergent from the bat-borne HNV members, Nipah (NiV) and Hendra (HeV) viruses.

Unraveling the molecular grammar and the structural transitions underlying the fibrillation of a viral fibrillogenic domain

Protein Science, Volume 34, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract Hendra virus (HeV) is a biosafety level 4 human pathogen belonging to the Henipavirus genus within the Paramyxoviridae family. In HeV, the phosphoprotein‐encoding gene also drives the synthesis of the V and W proteins that are two major players in the host innate immune response evasion.

In-Silico Approaches for Molecular Characterization and Structure-Based Functional Annotation of the Matrix Protein from Nipah henipavirus 

Chemistry Proceedings, 2022
Nipah henipavirus is an emerging RNA virus that poses a danger to world safety due to its high fatality rate. The Nipah virus has caused several illness epidemics in South and Southeast Asia.

Hendra Virus Outbreak with Novel Clinical Features, Australia

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2010
To determine the epidemiologic and clinical features of a 2008 outbreak of Hendra virus infection in a veterinary clinic in Australia, we investigated the equine case-series. Four of 5 infected horses died, as did 1 of 2 infected staff members.

Structural Studies of Henipavirus Glycoproteins

Viruses
Henipaviruses are a genus of emerging pathogens that includes the highly virulent Nipah and Hendra viruses that cause reoccurring outbreaks of disease. Henipaviruses rely on two surface glycoproteins, known as the attachment and fusion proteins, to facilitate entry into host cells.

Emerging Nipah Virus With Pandemic Potential and High Mortality Rates: Is the Scientific Community Learning From Former Pandemics?

Reviews in Medical Virology, Volume 35, Issue 2, March 2025.
ABSTRACT As Nipah virus (NiV) infection is characterised by a possible pandemic risk, being currently limited to a small but deadly belt, the attention of other countries is essential. It has often been pointed out that NiV is an under‐researched virus with a high‐risk potential. This study aimed to show the global research history and status quo based

Dissecting Henipavirus W proteins conformational and fibrillation properties: contribution of their N‐ and C‐terminal constituent domains

The FEBS Journal, Volume 292, Issue 3, Page 556-581, February 2025.
The W proteins of Nipah and Hendra viruses exhibit fibrillation abilities in vitro, which have been attributed to the intrinsically disordered N‐terminal domain (NTD). Our research shows that the C‐terminal domain (CTD) of both viruses is intrinsically disordered and non‐fibrillogenic.

Influence of Host and Landscape‐Associated Factors in the Infection and Transmission of Pathogens: The Case of Directly Transmitted Virus in Mammals

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 11, Issue 1, January 2025.
The figure shows the effects (increasing upward arrow or decreasing downward arrow) the most common host traits, landscape attributes, climatic features and anthropogenic variables recorded in the review had on the infection and transmission of directly transmitted virus to mammals.
